Animal Rescue Update: Caring for Megatron

Our Animal Rescue team is currently caring for a male harbor seal named Megatron!

Published March 04, 2016

After stranding on Bethany Beach in Delaware last week, a juvenile harbor seal was rescued and transported to the MERR Institute and later transferred to the National Aquarium for long-term rehabilitation.

We’re happy to report that our seal patient is responding well to his fluid therapy and antibiotics! In fact, he began eating on his own earlier this week and continues to enjoy a hefty diet of capelin, herring and mullet.
